Re: You didn't try Edelbrock's Performer X turbo kit

The Edelbrock Turbo kit makes 30hp more than than JRSC advertizes and it is also street legal. The ball-bearing turbo spools-up so fast off the line it is hard to shift fast enough to second gear. It comes intercooled and with a blow-off valve.
I am glad you are pleased with your JRSC installation but I would not trade mt Performer X turbo kit for any blower kit.

Go for the supercharger...I've had both, this bitch moves, right off idle. Oh yeah does anyone want a "Tru Power" alternator pulley? I know it fits the 2000 Civic Ex, not sure what other models are included. Has about 100 miles on it. $15 bucks??? I can't use it...let me know.:gives:

only thing I don't like about he jrsc is its lack of cooling capacity. Especially if you upgrade to the high boost pulley, coolant, intake charge and underhood temperatures get really high up there. I know for some kits (like miata, for example) it is possible to plumb an air to air intercooler into a jrsc kit, but I've never heard about that on a honda.
I personally would buy an SC for my car before a turbo, but thats just because its an autocross car. If I were in the market, I'd look at Procharger (centerfugal) which uses a dual or tri-core air to air intercooler, runs cooler than the jrsc or the vortech, and *supposedly* makes more power... Although I've yet to see a real dyno chart from them.

the JRSC has a water injector intercooler. dont know how well that works though.

actually thining about it. you can run a JRSC with a 9 lbs pulley therefore giving u a constant 9 psi right?
imagine that vs a turbo at 9 psi... u miss all that pressure during lag.
aside frmo all the variables the JRSC has the edge
